[Samba] Problem with Active Directory authentication

Hi,
I have a feeling that Rowland is correct that all the different
authentication methods are interfering with one another. I can say all I
have is winbind and it works fine for me. My relevant pam-auth-update
modules are:
[*] Unix authentication
[*] Winbind NT/Active Directory authentication
[*] Register user sessions in the systemd control group hierarchy
[*] Create home directory on login
My relevant excerpt from /etc/nsswitch.conf is:
passwd: compat winbind
group: compat winbind
If your smb.conf file includes the "template shell = /bin/bash" as you
indicated earlier, but your getent password is returning /bin/PHSshell
instead, I think the information is being returned by a service other than
winbind. Depending on how pam is configured, generally the order listed
when you run pam-auth-update will be the order in which the services are
tried. So the first one listed there is probably the one returning the
info to getent passwd. I also know that my ssh (Ubuntu 16.04 client and
server) doesn't like the username in the format <username>@<domainname> and
this isn't the format that winbind would return the information, at least
not by default. For me getent passwd <username>@<domainname> would return
the user as <domainname>\<username>. I would try running pam-auth-update
and disabling the LDAP and SSSD authentication methods and see if getent
passwd returns different info.
Your first post looked to me like the authentication was succeeding, but
then the shell was wrong and so you were immediately logged out. Like you
mentioned in a previous post, the /bin/PHSshell is probably one the issue
because it probably doesn't exist. A link from /bin/PHSshell to /bin/bash
would fix this, but more than likely, it is a configuration issue that is
returning the wrong shell in the first place. Is PHS your netbios domain
name? If it is, it's probably the LDAP or SSSD configuration that is
retuning the shell using a substitution that isn't set up correctly.
Good luck,
Mike E.
